i cannot even begin to express my disappointment at how chongyun's likeness is used as cover art for the combat event. i know it makes sense, but i don't like it.
#⇢₊˚⊹ 🩷∥ruby∥yo,ide yo !!#genshin spoilers#and at least for this first day of the event#the only reason he showed up was because xingqiu dragged him there#and obviously he's not gonna be a bitch about it#but he still didn't seem the least bit happy to be there the whole time#okay he's not outright sad or anything. but he's definitely not at his best either#i hope he gets to enjoy himself in the next day. because my god#today was kinda painful to play through ngl#obviously i want to see my main boy happy and having a good time#after he told us about his encounter with the weird maybe-a-spirit thing,i just wanted to give him a chair in the shade and maybe a popsicle#some mint jelly might even perk him up#since i'm talking about the event anyway,i'm just gonna say this here too#none of the event minigames are interesting to me#i haven't played the combat one. but quite frankly i don't need to#at this point i know that no matter what little variations they add,i'm still not gonna like it#the photo minigame is okay. other than walking around being kind of annoying#but they can only make a photo minigame so interesting so i'm still meh on it#i had the highest hopes for the dart one. but idk it just fell kinda flat for me#the dodoco minigame that lisa made is honestly way more fun to me than all three of these#i was really expecting some kind of riddle game. i know it's already part of the story,but#i expected smth like that guessing game in parade of providence. which i feel would've been more thematically fitting than the current ones#like... what does throwing darts have to do with poetry.......#i saw the previews in the livestream. i should've known it was going to be like this#rn i just hope that name-dropping chongyun in the livestream actually means that something interesting will happen with him as the focus#otherwise if he's just gonna stay like this the whole time,then i don't understand why hoyo would put him back in the banner for this event#who's gonna want to pull for him if he's not at the very least vibing in the story?#im still gonna pull for him regardless obviously. i need all his damn cons. but yk. i dont think this is doing much to endear him to anyone#maybe to other chongyun mains this is all copacetic and i should just be grateful that he gets to play a prominent role in an event at all#i just... hope the writers let him have a good time
